Riverdale Theory: Is Ben Actually Charles Cooper!?

Okay guys, hear me out. In last weeks episode of Riverdale, we got the bomb dropping news that Chic Cooper ISN’T A COOPER! That’s right kids! Half of the dream was correct: the child Alice had in High School’s baby daddy is in fact KP Jones, BUT it is not Chic, but a boy named Charles. Chic, Charles, I get the confusion.

According to Chic Cooper, he murdered Charles in a roommate-lovers(?) quarrel; which was corroborated by their nosy, trash digging neighbor.

But wait, should we really trust that creepy Franco Brothers look alike? What if Charles is not dead? What if he’s been hanging out in Riverdale this entire time right under our noses?! What if Charles is actually Ben! Remember Ben? The kid who keeps popping up all over the place?!

Ben is always skulking around Riverdale:

At first I was like, hmmm maybe he’s the show-runners kid, but now I think there’s definitely more him than meets the eye. Check out this photos of Charles vs Ben. Similar eyes, nose, mouth, different hair, but that’s easily changeable.

All I’m saying is, this is Riverdale. Anything is possible. What do you think? Is Ben just a random throw away character or something more? Make sure to comment and let me know!
